Definitions
- the present invention relates in general to the production of a mono-olefin by the oxidative dehydrogenation of the corresponding lower paraffin.
- the invention relates to a process in which a tin oxide/phosphorus oxide catalyst is used in the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane to ethylene, propane to propylene or isobutane to isobutene.
- a catalyst consisting essentially of tin oxide and phosphorus oxide ie tin oxide and phosphorus oxide substantially free from metallic promoters capable of promoting the conversion of mono-olefins to di-olefins, can surprisingly be used to selectively catalyse the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane, propane or isobutane to ethylene, propylene and isobutene respectively.
- the present invention provides a process for the production of a mono-olefin by the oxidative dehydrogenation of the corresponding paraffin which process comprises reacting either ethane, propane or isobutane and an oxygen-containing gas at elevated temperature in the presence of a catalyst consisting essentially of tin oxide and phosphorus oxide.
- the ethane, propane or isobutane may be obtained from any convenient source. They may suitably be used in the substantially pure form or in the form of mixtures, which may contain for example paraffins other than ethane, propane or isobutane. Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane, propane and isobutane produces respectively ethylene, propylene and isobutene.
- tin oxide/phosphorus oxide catalysts depends to some extent on their method of preparation.
- a method of preparation which has been found to produce active and selective catalysts comprises either sequential hydrolysis or co-hydrolysis of hydrolysable tin and phosphorus compounds.
- Preferred sources of hydrolysable tin and phosphorus compounds are tin (IV) compounds, ie stannic compounds, and phosphorus (V) compounds, since these compounds produce on hydrolysis stannic oxide and phosphorus pentoxide respectively.
- Preferred tin (IV) compounds are the tin tetrahalides and tin tetraalk ls and preferred phosphorus (V) compounds are the phosphorus pentahalides and the phosphorus oxyhalides.
- the molar ratio of Sn:P in the finished catalyst is less than 2 in order to ensure the most selective catalysts.
- Catalysts which have higher levels of tin tend to produce higher yields of unwanted by-products; such as methane.
- the oxygen-containing gas may suitably be air, though gases richer or poorer than air with regard to their oxygen content, for example oxygen itself, may be employed.
- the process is preferably carried out under continuous flow conditions.
- the elevated temperature may suitably be in the range from 200 to 700°C.
- the pressure may suitably be in the range from 1 to 50 bar.
- the catalyst may be charged to a reactor under ambient conditions and the reactor slowly heated to the desired reaction temperature under a continuous flow of the oxygen-containing gas.
- the flow of oxygen-containing gas may be replaced by a gas flow containing both the paraffin and the oxygen-containing gas.
- the products of the reaction may subsequently be fed to a recovery unit wherein the gaseous reactants and product may be separated using known techniques.
- the tin oxide/phosphorus oxide catalysts were prepared by dissolving the appropriate amount of tin tetrachloride in water sufficient to produce a solution 4 molar in tin. After this stage was complete sufficient phosphoryl chloride was added to the solution to produce a mixture of the desired Sn:P ratio. The resulting solution was brought to pH 4 by the addition of aqueous .880 ammonia during which time the solution gelled. The gel was centrifuged, redispersed in water until all chloride was removed, treated with 1M nitric acid and dried in air at 120°C. CATALYST RUN DETAILS - EXAMPLES 1 TO 12
- Examples 1 - 4 relate to a catalyst having a Sn:P molar ratio of 1:0.625 and a feed gas flow rate of ⁇ mls" 1 ,
- Examples 5 - 8 relate to the same catalyst at a feed gas flow rate of 33 mis" 1 and Examples 9 - 12 relate to a catalyst having a Sn:P molar ratio of 1:0.113 and a feed gas flow rate of 33 mis" 1 .
